Claire Griffiths (1985)

Claire read Classics at St John’s and more recently attended a Masters course in Near and Middle Eastern Studies at SOAS. After graduating she worked as a European Smaller Companies fund manager for more than 25 years, ultimately as a partner at a large investment management firm and subsequently at a boutique hedge fund. She discovered rowing with the LMBC, winning her oar in the Lent Bumps. She also launched the College's first aerobics class in the School of Pythagoras and would like to thank all those who attended for inspiring her to qualify as an Exercise to Music and Zumba instructor. The latter turned out to be a fantastic foil for finance. Her interests include dance, music and art. She is also a Patron of Sadler's Wells.
